MidJourney just announced... a full body ultrasound! Yup... read on because it's as crazy as it sounds. "As powerful as MRI and as casual as a trip to the spa" They are calling it "the @midjourney scanner" Insane details: - First, the scale. The device uses 8,960 individual transducers arranged in a ring around your body - The precision is the most jaw-dropping part: it resolves motion at the picometer range. It can image internal tissues finer than the width of an atom. We are talking sub-atomic level diagnostic capability - The compute requirement is massive. The system processes 17 gigabytes of data per second. It takes 40GB of raw data to reconstruct just one cross-sectional slice. And they are planning to scan 100 slices? - Midjourney claims that fewer than 12 of these machines could perform more full-body scans than every MRI machine on Earth combined. Welcome to the future of healthcare! Not only these scanners are announced, they will exist in a "Midjourney SPA" - with hot tubs, saunas, cold plunges, and 9-10 whole body scanners.

Is this a financial hallucination? @elonmusk was not even in the world’s top ten richest people until 2020. Now he is the world’s first trillionaire. It is absurd, but not fake. This was not some slow, stately climb through the billionaire league table. Musk crashed into the top ten during Covid, rode the Tesla mania, fell back when markets turned, then launched into another universe as SpaceX was marked at a much higher valuation. As others have pointed out to me, this wasn't luck. This was 24 years of SpaceX history being priced in by public markets, helped a bit by the addition of an AI business. That is the story in this animation. These are shares, private valuations, collateral, market mood and a huge wager on the future, all compressed into one ridiculous number: $1.3 trillion as of today. Once the financial system agrees to treat paper wealth as real, it becomes real enough. It can be borrowed against. It can be pledged. It can buy control, influence and time. It can decide which companies get funded, which technologies get built and which version of the future attracts capital. That is the mad part. Musk’s fortune is both real and ridiculous at the same time. Real, because markets, banks and investors have endorsed it. Ridiculous, because a large part of it can move violently when sentiment changes, a rocket explodes, Tesla rerates, or investors decide the future is worth a different price. This feels like a chart about modern wealth becoming stranger, faster and more detached from anything most people would recognise as money. What do you think?

A homeless man approached a taco vendor in Ecuador asking for food. The vendor refused the money, prepared something for him to eat, and then realized that the man needed much more than food: he needed a hug...

Tell me something the Democrat Party has done for the Black community? They were against the Civil Rights Movement. Lyndon B. Johnson is part of the reason why Black Americans started depending on federal government handouts. Joe Biden was a racist. So tell me, what has the progressive party done for the Black community?

This is why smart people rarely build businesses Jensen Huang stood in front of a room of Stanford graduates and told them he hopes they suffer. He wasn't being cruel. He was being precise. His argument: people with very high expectations have very low resilience. And resilience, not intelligence, is what decides who actually makes it. A Stanford grad has spent their whole life as the smartest person in the room. They've rarely been tested by real failure. So when something finally breaks, they break with it. Then he said the line every founder should sit with: "Greatness is not intelligence. Greatness comes from character. And character isn't formed out of smart people, it's formed out of people who suffered." He would know. At nine, Huang was scrubbing toilets at a Kentucky boarding school his family hadn't realized was a reform school. As a teenager he bussed tables at Denny's. In 1993 he started NVIDIA in a Denny's booth, and nearly lost it more than once in the years that followed. The character was built decades before the valuation showed up. This is why he uses the words "pain and suffering" inside NVIDIA with what he calls great glee. He isn't trying to shield his best people from the hard part. He's trying to give it to them on purpose. Talent gets you into the room. The people who stay are the ones who were broken once and learned they could rebuild.

Vice President @JDVance explains why he chose to sit down with the sad cat ladies on The View, even though they hate his guts: “The President’s attitude on this is, and I really do believe this, is 'you go everywhere. You go anywhere to try and take the message'… What I love about this administration is we go everywhere, and The View has a lot of people who watch it. Now, most of them are not sympathetic to the administration. But if every 10 people who watch that show are not fans of ours, but you get the message out to one open-minded person, that was worth it in my view. And that’s how we’re going to win the future, is actually go out and persuade people even in hostile places.”

BREAKING: The attempted terror attack that was to take place at the White House UFC fight night was FOILED thanks to an Ohio mom turning in her son for his suspicious activity involving firearms. Notice how the right doesn't have this problem. "The entire plot may have been stopped by a concerned mother in Ohio. Those involved in the alleged plot were arrested in Ohio, Nebraska, Missouri, and California. In Ohio, investigators say 19-year-old Tyson Proper's mother called police after she was concerned about her son's recent conduct including firearms purchases and communications with people online. According to authorities, when the mother asked her son what he was doing, he said he couldn't tell her exactly what he was doing."

BREAKING: The U.S. Department of Justice is backing xAI and asking the court to dismiss the NAACP lawsuit against its Colossus data center. The Department of Justice says shutting down xAI’s power supply would threaten U.S. national security because Grok is already being used for critical military and defense operations. DOJ also said that Grok is one of only a handful of AI systems supporting mission-critical government networks. DOJ, xAI, and Mississippi are asking the court to dismiss the case.

A healthy society needs adults who can cooperate, compromise, and resolve conflict. Those lessons start on the playground, not in the classroom, writes @jarobinson1.
A healthy society depends on adults who can cooperate, communicate, compromise, and resolve conflict. According to @jarobinson1, those skills don't begin in a classroom lecture.

🚨 JUST IN: The Attorney General of Florida is now launching an investigation into the MLB after they WARNED 3 Giants pitchers simply because they wore BIBLE VERSES on their "Pride Night" caps GOOD! JD VANCE: "Trump won we don’t have to do this anymore." AG UTHMEIER: "Do you practice religious discrimination in Florida, MLB? You’ll be hearing from my office soon." The verse says that the rainbow is a symbol of a covenant between God and all living creatures. WHY would they discipline that? Cut the BS! Christians can be Christians!

🚨 LMFAO! Scott Bessent just TORCHED the New York Times right to their faces for inventing garbage about President Trump’s health. Pure domination. “I don’t read the New York Times anymore! People send me articles, but there’s this feverish swamp!” Then he nukes them: “The NYT is no longer the paper of record. ‘President Trump is slowing down, mental capacity’ — it’s 100% FAKE! I mean, he only called me twice at 3AM instead of three times?” The room LOST IT. And then the kill shot: “You had one of the greatest scandals of all time — Biden’s diminished capacity and the COVER-UP. Where was the New York Times?” Scott Bessent is doing what every Republican SHOULD be doing: exposing media fraud right to their faces.

AMEN 🙏!
Want to save the West? Start by telling your children the truth. A society that teaches its children to hate their inheritance shouldn't be surprised when they fail to preserve it. Teach your children gratitude. Teach them why freedom matters. Teach them what made the West successful. Because if you don't tell them the truth about their civilisation, someone else will tell them a lie.

SpaceX has exercised the option to acquire @cursor_ai in an all-stock transaction with the goal of building the world’s most useful AI models. For the past few months, SpaceXAI has been jointly training a model with Cursor, which will be released in Cursor and Grok Build soon. We look forward to working closely with the Cursor team to advance our frontier AI capabilities
Apr 21
SpaceXAI and @cursor_ai are now working closely together to create the world’s best coding and knowledge work AI. The combination of Cursor’s leading product and distribution to expert software engineers with SpaceX’s million H100 equivalent Colossus training supercomputer will allow us to build the world’s most useful models. Cursor has also given SpaceX the right to acquire Cursor later this year for $60 billion or pay $10 billion for our work together.
